Hello as you can see what my name is as well as age! I decided to have surgery because I did not want to be diabetic anymore! And of course to lose weight so I can fit into skinny jeans. I had a wonderful experience as well as met so many new people and made new friends this was a trip I will never forget! I went into surgery Monday morning and I weight 254 pounds today is Jume 23 and I have lost a total of 22 pounds it is amazing to see results. I am no longer taking metaformin or lisinoprol for high blood pressure. I am taking liquid vitamins to help my nutritional value. I am very happy with my surgery I will have my stitches removed on Wednesday, And on Thursday I will start with puree foods. I would like to thank everyone to help with the sucess of my surgery. Everyone was amazing and polite and nice and wonderful.

Thank you,
Dolores Mendoza
